@Philindicus, Hey thanks for the tip. After the flush it seemed to have worked itself out. I think the camera makes it look a little worse off than it really is. Up until around that point I had been keeping religious tabs on the run off and never was +200 of what I poured in. It may have been the temp of the water. As it changes with ambient and I mix enough for 2 days worth of watering and didn't really check that often on the second day to make sure it was still in range. I can't imagine it would change that much really, I'm using RO water and generally wait about 30m for the silica to dissolve.

This is incredible work! I am also blown away that this was your first attempt at any kind of garden. one question: were you using RO/distilled water? I'm shocked you were able to use the Canna nutrients at the label recommended strength for these autos without any burning, etc... Again, truly incredible work. I'll be watching your future grows with keen interest!

@samadhi, Hey thanks. Definitely surprised myself with how relatively pain free this process has been. Should have really started a lot sooner haha. Just did a lot of reading and research to get a general idea of what I was doing. But thankfully the process is documented pretty well with forums / youtube / discord. I definitely used RO water, simply because I wanted to eliminate variables as much as I could for my first grow. My tap is pretty decent at 200ppm, so I may change it up next grow using Jacks 321 to hopefully keep costs down. Because as far as I can tell, nutes are nutes. And I'm not skilled enough to chase that extra % of perfection. As far as the feeding schedule, I followed Canna website recommendations for a "light" feeding schedule adjusted for PPM per their calculator. And with this I rounded down when it was convenient for me. i.e. 32 ML of A and B per 4 gallons. I just used 30ML because it was easier to measure. Granted I'm a bit lazy. I really only started watering 2x a day these last 2 weeks. For most of their life, I just watered till run off once a day. About 1 - 1.5 gallons per 2 plants. Thanks again!
